Psalm 131

1.My heart is not proud, Lord,

    my eyes are not haughty;

I do not concern myself with great matters

    or things too wonderful for me.

2.But I have calmed and quieted myself,

    I am like a weaned child with its mother;

    like a weaned child I am content.

3.Israel, put your hope in the Lord

    both now and forevermore.

Wachana na mambo usioweza na uishi kulingana na neema uliyo nayo (Leave out things that you cannot afford and live under the grace that God has given you).

Live a simple life within your means.

Don't live to impress people, live to impact people.

Do not allow what you don't have to prevent you from enjoying what you have.

Learn to Rest, eat well and sleep

Psalm 127:2

[2]In vain you rise early

    and stay up late,

toiling for food to eat—

    for he grants sleep to those he loves.

 of excessive labor and the blessing of sleep: 

Hard work is important, it's also important to rest, as God provides rest for those 

1 Kings 19:5-7 tells the story of Elijah, who, after being exhausted, is encouraged to eat and drink by an angel, and then sleeps. The angel returns and urges him to eat again.

Before a long journey:

important to work diligently, but also to prioritize rest and nourishment. God's provision extends to both our physical and spiritual needs.
